BP Spills Coffee

This is probably my second favorite Internet video. If you are in need for a good laugh watch these people make fun of the BP executives. Happy Monday!

Polo and Popeyes!?!?

On June 12 I attended my first polo match USA vs. India with girlfriends.  I had know idea what to expect and that the Salahis aka "The White House party crashers" were the host.  I found that ironic considering it was held on federal property.  In the past this has been a huge nice event with a fashion show, concerts, vendors, wine, food, silent auction, etc.  Well, that was not the case this year... to give you a visual the Salahis thought Popeyes was an adequate representation of American cuisine. WHAT?!?!  The Indian cuisine was represented much better, but that is not difficult when you are competing against Popeyes.  Keep in mind the 12 of us paid alot of money to attend this event VIP.  There was not a fashion show or concert, no wine opener for the first two hours (wine was from the Salahis' vineyard Oasis), and the silent auction had no certificates of authenticity for the items.  It was pretty disappointing, but here are some highlights:  I now like polo, Bravo TV was there, USA won, and I met another DC housewife "Michaele Salahi".  By the way she was super nice and pretty.

I Love NYC!

Most of you know Amy Love and I have been taking an annual trip together to our favorite city since graduate school.  This year my cousin in law Karridi and Amy's long time friend Jeane joined us.  My good friend Catherine lives in the city and joined us for one evening.  Each year we have had different friends come along.  Karridi's mom, my mother in law, and their sister Kathy have a sister trip at least once a year, so we decided to begin our own sister trip since none of us have sisters.  I can't wait to see where all we will go over the years.  We had a blast like always and literally did nothing for 4 days, but SHOP and EAT!  I typically buy one pair of fancy shoes, but I literally went to two Christian Louboutin stores and neither had my size in any of the shoes I wanted.  See if you can spy what I bought instead ;o)

DELICIOUS!  This is one of my favorites in the city!

Two Thumbs Up

Chick Fi-La Spicy Chicken Sandwich

If you know me you know I LOVE Chick-Fi-La!  It is probably a good thing it is not easy to get to one here in Arlington.  If you know me you also know I LOVE spicy food and can eat it with the best of them.  When I heard about this debut I quickly made my reservation.  M and I both reserved our free sandwiches and drove 20 miles to try it. HA!HA!  This sandwich was mild to my taste buds, but delicious.  I typically get the nuggets (with Polynesian sauce), but would get this again if in the mood for sandwich.  I also saw on the menu that you can get a whole wheat bun on request for an extra 30 cents.

Have you tried this new sandwich?  Do you think it was a good move for Chick-Fi-La?

ENJOY XOXO,

Hump Day Deal!
